[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NNAT: 133
CogAT: 120 Verbal, 120 Quant, 125 NonVerbal
GBRS: 13 
DRA Level: 28

In pool, didn't prep. GBRS commentary focused on DC's character, creativity, leadership and facilitation skills, behavior during recess, artistic work, ability to learn concepts quickly, and advanced reading interests/level.

I wish the selection process was more transparent and predictable.  Our DC was added to the pool, had similar #s, but was not selected:

NNAT:  134
CogAT:  122 
GBRS: 12

Just took WISC-IV and will be appealing per recommendation from the psychologist who conducted the test.

My child had similar scores and was not accepted either. Do you mind sharing the Wisc result?

Haven't received the written report yet, but VCI and POI were in very superior and superior ranges.  WMI and PSI were in the average ranges.  The last two subset scores brought the FSIQ down to 122.   The psychologist said the WMI and PSI scores were due to her perfectionism personality (if she wasn't 100% certain about the answer, she either didn't answer or just pulled one out of thin air).  It was interesting to hear that from the psychologist who only saw her for an hour when this is something we've always struggled with her.  Even though her FSIQ isn't AAP-worthy (per this forum's standard), the psychologist recommended that we appeal since her VCI and POI scores are high.   I'm hoping the WISC report mentioning the reason behind the low WMI and PSI scores will be noted by the AAP review board.  [/quote]

Ask the doctor to give you a score for GAI. That might be higher score since your DC's VCI and PRI is high. GAI does not include WM and PS. [/quote]
